Which kind of lavender is the most common?
Depends on where you live. Lavender is a mediterranean plant that needs certain soil conditions and climate to grow well. In England, you might find more of the "English" variety, although it did not originate in England. It is native to France into the Italian alps. In Bulgaria or Turkey, where some of the oil available for puchase all over the world today originates from, "Vera" is often the most cited variety. Lavandula agustifolia has many types used for different things. If you want to use it in your cooking, or to flavor drinks, use the English varieties. Some common forms of this that you will find in garden centers are "Vera", Hidcote, Munstead, make sure to use only culinary grade lavender if you buy the cleaned lavender flower buds for cooking. Lavandula Agustifolia Intermedia "Provence" is a hybrid that is also used for cooking as it has a milder flavor than some of the other lavenders used for oil. -an excellent text to do more research is The Genus Lavandula by Tim Upson and Susyn Andrews
What trees flowers and plants are commonly found in the UK?
I assume you mean nuclear plants. The first series were the Magnox design which used natural metallic uranium in magnesium alloy sheaths, graphite moderator, and CO2 gas coolant. These are now obsolete and only one or two stations are still operating. The development of these was the AGR which used oxide fuel in stainless steel sheaths, graphite moderator, CO2 gas coolant. These could operate at much higher coolant outlet temperature and so are more efficient, but to keep the graphite at acceptable temperature a very complicated arrangement of re-entrant gas flow is required. There are 14 of these reactors operating. There is also one PWR reactor operating.
